DRINK PLENTY OFFLUIDS.STAY IN AN AIR-CONDITIONED ROOM.STAY OUT OF THE SUN.AND CHECK UP ON RELATIVES & NEIGHBORS.
It has been horribly hot...everything is burning up. It was especially bad for us today. The heat just wont stop. The ac ran nonstop today and in the afternoon, the house was still 76 inside. It has been so hot that simone has been taking water to the rabbits 3 times a day...just so the water is fresh and cool. When she went today, several of our rabbits looked way overheated and she came to get us. When we went down to the rabbit pin, it was bad. Our totally fav mom rabbit was laying out and just quivering all over. She was in serious destress. All of her babies that are still in her cage with her were only a bit better. One of the babies didn't make it and neither did the mom. We watered the pins down and tried to keep it cool...they are in the shade and had plenty of water but sometimes it just doesn't help. We tried and tried, but nothing worked.
The worst part is that this weather is just going to keep on...it is suppost to be like this all week again. No rain, no clouds, no relief.

Isn't this heat something? First all the rain around here in June and now this heat! it was 99 in this part of Missouri and they say around 102 Monday!
yes, it is about the same here! I guess it could always be worse thought (or at least that is what my mom always says). I am thankful for all of the rain that we did have or this place would be like a dust bowl right now.
